Case
Traditional skills of woodworking and leather trimming have been brought together to create the perfect presentation case for the Jewel.
The case is made from the recipient’s personal choice of decorative veneers: from burr elm, burr walnut, burr maple or burr yew, enhanced by cross banding and the art of marquetry. Gold leaf is then carefully applied to specific areas and the exterior is hand lacquered and polished to a superlative finish.
S. C. Gordon Ltd., Rolls-Royce authorised coachbuilders, were commissioned by Arfaq to make the case.
The interior of the case houses the Jewel, cosseted in the finest Connolly hide. The perfect fit that can only come from 30 hours of craftsmanship which each case commands. As with the veneers, the recipient is offered a choice of colours for the fine Connolly hide interior.
